I put fluorescent dye in our hydraulic oil to make chasing out leaks in our excavators/dozers easier. The mini excavator has a true snarkle of lines under the operator station and it can be a real bugger figuring out which line is leaking this time. The dye makes it much easier to diagnose.
Not an answer to your application, but same principle applies.
